Fremont: Trio arrested in connection with ATM robbery of retired U.S. Marine

FREMONT -- Two men and a teenager were arrested Wednesday on suspicion of robbing a retired U.S. Marine at a bank ATM last week, authorities said.

Prabhleen Singh, Manjot Dhillon, and a 17-year-old boy were arrested in connection to the April 9 armed robbery in Fremont, police said. The arrest came hours after authorities released surveillance photos of the suspects.

Police say the 67-year-old was using the ATM at a Fremont Bank of America, located at 46650 Mohave Drive, at 1:05 a.m. when a Mercedes car pulled up. Singh, 22, of Fremont, allegedly got out of the car, pointed a gun at the victim and demanded his wallet. The former U.S. Marine threw his wallet to Singh, authorities said.

Dhillon, 24, of Union City, allegedly drove the getaway car. Authorities did not release the 17-year-old's name because he is a minor.

One hour after the robbery, the victim's credit cars were used at a 7-Eleven about four miles away.

The suspects were arrested on suspicion of multiple felony charges including robbery, elder abuse, possession of stolen property and a felon -- Dhillon -- in possession of ammunition. Singh and Dhillon were booked into the Fremont jail while the teenager was booked into Juvenile Hall.
